St. Mirren F.C.

FEW of the 423 St Mirren supporters who'd made the trip to the Fair City appreciated the half-hearted applause from the Paisley players at the end of yet another woeful display, one that leaves them with lead weights in their boots at the bottom of the Premiership.

The funereal tone of Jason Naismith's voice in the immediate aftermath of St Mirren's defeat, a surrender akin to how a chicken would accept its fate when coming face to face with a fox, delivered a predictable message: it's not good enough.
